We are seeking a skilled data analyst for the above named study. The data
analyst will be working on a complex Access database which was designed
around five years ago to gather detailed descriptive information,
routinely, on all patients who received surgical treatment for a shoulder
problem.
The data analyst will take responsibility for preparing and defining the
subset of data to be analysed, and will analyse data using appropriate
computing, psychometric and statistical research expertise in consultation
with the research team members.
Applicants should possess a master's degree or equivalent level of
training (preferably statistics or epidemiology) and a minimum of 3 years'
research experience working within the broad fields of social
medicine/epidemiology/health services research.
Advanced IT skills including Access database and Word are required, as are
substantial quantitative data analysis skills using a statistical software
package such as SPSS, SAS or STATA. The ability to convey complex
statistical concepts to non-experts would be an advantage.
The post is for one year only and will be based at the Department of
Public Health on the Old Road Campus.
